Cloudability SaaS
SaaS adoption is rapidly growing, with many global service decision-makers reporting that they invest or plan to invest in SaaS as part of their organization’s digital transformation strategy, according to Forrester. As a result, SaaS consumption continues to rise significantly for enterprises of various sizes, totaling a global market of $500 billion.

As SaaS deployment continues to grow, one of the challenges many organizations are facing is the lack of central accountability over SaaS licenses, which means that these enterprises may have multiple contracts for the same product or several products that are underutilized, negating the cost benefits of SaaS. With the number of SaaS solutions in the enterprise in the hundreds, this is a concern for those that want to centrally manage, report, and optimize current SaaS applications while also discovering new SaaS applications that their organization may be using.

Cloudability SaaS is designed to discover and report on all SaaS applications, analyze license utilization and spend by application, and rightsize SaaS portfolios to meet changing business needs and avoid potential compliance issues. With this product, organizations can reallocate licenses based on usage, eliminate duplicative applications, and forecast future costs through what-if analysis.
